摘要

We examined the relationship between employee creativity and job performance. Furthermore, we identified two learning-related personal and situational variables-employee learning orientation and transformational leadership-and examined their effects on employee creativity through employee creative self-efficacy. We found that employee creativity was positively related to employee sales and to supervisor-rated employee job performance. Employee learning orientation and transformational leadership were positively related to employee creativity, and these relationships were mediated by employee creative self-efficacy. We discuss the implications of these findings for creativity theory and research, as well as for management practice.
